Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3,8,6,24 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3,8,6,24 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,48,24,449
2 | 24, 48, 24, 449 |
2 | 12, 24, 12, 449 |
2 | 6, 6, 12, 449 |
3 | 3, 3, 6, 449 |
1, 1, 2, 449 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 2 x 449 = 21552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/24,8/48,6/24,24/449 is 1/21552
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 24,48,24,449 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,48,24,449) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 576
GCF(24,48,24,449) x common factors =1 x 576 = 576
LCM(24,48,24,449) = ( 24 × 48 × 24 × 449 ) / 576
LCM(24,48,24,449) = 12413952 / 576
LCM(24,48,24,449) = 21552
